Taoism in Singapore is the religion of about 8.8% of the country's entire population as per the 2020 census.[1] The definition of "Taoism" in the country is included as part of the wider Chinese folk religion. In general, nearly all adherents of Taoism in Singapore are associated with the mainstream Zhengyi school. Larger proportion of older residents adhere to Taoism, as compared with those in younger age groups.
The Taoist Federation of Singapore was first established in 1990 to promote greater public awareness and understanding of the Taoist culture and traditions.[2] Although there are over one thousand Chinese temples in Singapore, only around 540 Taoist temples and organisations are affiliated to the Taoist Federation.[3][4]
